Disney After Hours BOO BASH

[Sirwalterraleigh]

This is actually pretty frustrating that they are flat out lying. Maybe the part of india that Cheryl is in has different COVID restrictions then florida?

Cheryl is in Naples…

chapek’s summer home is in yeehaw junction

 

[Sirwalterraleigh]

Yes... apparently it did.

I’m just playing…

the poster’s concrentration on “tone” is a convenient distraction from the actual problem…which was in their too

 

[Sirwalterraleigh]

I shot them an email expressing my "concerns" about increasing capacity after buying tickets in reliance of the promise of limited attendance.

I figure if they hear from enough people, much like the noodles at Ohana, they may realize they need to be careful here.

Nah…they bought…more will. This too shall pass.

I emailed earlier too.

The problem with me is I stay upset/angry for about 20 minutes then I'm over it and by the time they call back (which guest services always does) I'm like "oh yeah, I'm fine!".

…they know that. Always allow the valve time to release the pressure

I'd like to email as well, what's the best address to use to actually get a response?

You’ll get a response…they will tell you they value your feedback and always are looking for suggestions to “better enhance the experience”

I find this one to be very responsive:
guest.services@disneyworld.com

I've only contacted a couple times, but I will say- they refunded me an AP purchase (not activated yet) once when I explained my situation - I was very thankful.

I'm not expecting anything about the party to change, I'm just saying sometimes they do help.

 

[Jedi Osborn]

yeah, I don't expect any results, but it's pretty simple to send an email to voice concern. Thanks for the address!

You might get offered a refund….is that what you want? Do not misinterpret this as anything other than a serious question….

we are going and looking forward to it….in the hopes of similar attendance to previous DHS

That's a valid question! Personally, I'd take it. I think it's WAY overpriced. However, my wife and 3 daughters appear to disagree

So I'll just voice my opinion out to the nether and move on.

8/17.... second night of Boo Bash, and the night for which I have tickets, is now sold out.
Makes me wonder: Maybe they didn't increase the capacity for August, only for the later events when things are more "normal."

 

[Dad 2 M & M]

Honestly…I understand your point about rides…but it’s kinda nuts that it “makes sense”

that is block pricing…my pet peeve

I think I agree on your block pricing pet peeve…elaborate

question is why don’t they have more pricing blocks based on the remaining Supply

I think it’s UNDERPRICED……surprised they didn’t raise the price for the added capacity

Hmm... I have no idea, although you might be on to something: they didn't add any Sundays in August, which might suggest that the August dates (except for the first one or two, which are attractive to the bloggers and to others who enjoy being the first to do something) weren't hugely popular to begin with. Of course, that's what I want to believe, because our date would be 8/24... although that doesn't rule out Disney raising capacity on those earlier dates once they start to fill up at some point in the future... although APH events didn't always sell out in the past, this year the pent-up demand would seem to almost guarantee that all BB dates will eventually be sold out.

I do hope you'll post here after you go and let us know how it went.

 

[Dad 2 M & M]

Wonder what will happen for the Christmas version?

 

[Dan Deesnee]

To anyone holding out thinking that they're not going to keep increasing capacity, it's time to get a grip on reality. They're going to sell as many tickets as they can to each night.

Remember... the deduction that they added capacity was the specific date moving from sold out to available... if the event was already 'available', we'd never know if they added capacity or not...

I don't think they will be mobbed, I still expect attendance to be similar to the pre-COVID after-hours event. But we'll see.

Which was a bit miserable honestly. My last MNSSHP was September of 2019 and, compared to prior years to that, was very crowded and less enjoyable.

Underpriced? I'm not sure anything at WDW is UNDERpriced. I think someone a couple dozen pages back did the math and for a family of 5 we'll be paying something like $5 a minute to go.

But I suppose one's price opinion depends on a lot of factors so I can agree to disagree I should have qualified it and said it was overpriced for my situation.

I've been asking the same thing.

Will they run a Christmas After Hours with a cavalcade?
If they do that, do they run those same cavalcades during Christmas week for daily ops?
Or do they do Christmas After Hours the week of Christmas as well to maximize profit?

I put nothing past them.
